I feel like the only guy in the room that wasn't* addicted to meth after someone took all the meth away.

Couldn't care less about TikTok

Ok, but this ban isn't just for tiktok, you realize that right? If Trump wants to consider UK and adversary he could ban the BBC app as well? This wasn't just a tiktok ban it's a ban on ALL "foreign adversary" apps. Nobody gives a shit you never used it.

Disclaimer: I think Trump is a criminal asshole.

Technically, Trump didn't ban anything (this time). Biden did. Trump's just getting credit for bringing it back.

Also, I don't give a shit what you think everyone else gives a shit about.

edit: actually, to clarify; Neither of them banned TikTok. Congress passsed a law, and the Supreme Court upheld it. Biden just didn't block it. And Trump can't magically unblock it, he can just delay it by 90 days.
